@Smash_Gynocracy Internet, do your thing. Find this bastard.

[dilipram @_Dtalks]

Wow.

Sad to see these bright kids eventuwlky leave India and study and settle abroad since our system cares less abut quality and more on rote learnng and corruption....

When politics is the proud place for un educated lumps, the bright will leave.

I taught JEE physics for years. That paper breaks strong kids in three hours.

This exam is five hours of theory and five hours of lab work, and these five did close to perfect scores on it.

Let me tell you what actually happened.

The International Physics Olympiad is the world championship of school physics. It was the 56th edition. Held in Bucaramanga, Colombia, from July 5 to 12.

381 students. More than 85 countries. Every one of them the best physics student their country could find.

India sent five kids.

All five came back with gold.

Their names are Kanishk Jain from Pune. Riddhesh Anant Bendale from Indore. Rishit Garg from Dwarka in Delhi. Shresth Suraiya from Mumbai. Svarit Joshi from Ahmedabad.

We know a hundred cricketers by their nickname and not one of these boys. :)

That clean sweep put India at joint World Number One. Tied with China, Russia, Kazakhstan, South Korea and Taiwan.

Those are countries that pour serious money and national pride into science education. We are standing level with them.

Now here is what the exam actually was.

Two papers. Each five hours long.

The theory paper had three problems. One on the thermodynamics of paramagnetic cooling. One on the photoionisation of ozone. One on the dynamics of electron positron pairs.

The experimental paper was another five hours in a lab, working through heat transfer and thermodynamic processes in fluids.

That means you get given equipment you have never seen, and you have to design your own experiment, take your own readings, handle the errors, and reach a real answer.

Not multiple choice. No shortcuts. No pattern recognition. You either understand physics or you sit there for five hours.

HBCSE says the Indian students were near perfect on theory and excellent on the practical too.

Now, this was India's 27th appearance at the IPhO.

Across all those years, about 44 percent of Indian students have won gold, 41 percent silver, 10 percent bronze.

In the last ten years, every single Indian student has come home with a medal. 62 percent gold, 38 percent silver.

Not one kid has gone and come back empty handed in a decade.

Five golds in one year has happened only twice. This year, and in 2018.

So who built this.

The programme is run by HBCSE, the Homi Bhabha Centre for Science Education. It sits under TIFR, which sits under the Department of Atomic Energy.

They run the whole funnel. A national exam, then a national olympiad, then a brutal selection and training camp, and out of everyone in the country, five kids get on a plane.

The team was led by Professor Anwesh Mazumdar of HBCSE-TIFR and Dr Leena Joshi from St Xavier's College, Mumbai.

The scientific observers were Professor Ananda Dasgupta from IISER Kolkata and Nisha Kelkar from Gogate-Joglekar College in Ratnagiri.

Yes. Ratnagiri. A college in a small coastal town in Maharashtra.

This is public education doing something the private coaching industry could never do on its own.

The coaching industry is very good at one thing. Teaching you to solve a known problem fast.

That is what JEE and NEET reward, and I say that with love because I was part of that world.

But an olympiad paper does not have a known type. There is no shortcut chapter. There is no formula sheet that saves you. You have to sit with a problem you have never seen and think.

That is a completely different muscle. And a government funded centre has been quietly building it in Indian teenagers for 27 years.

So yes, be proud. Loudly.

HBCSE also shared that around 64 percent of India's olympiad medallists go on to do a PhD.

But only about 32 percent of medallists end up settling in India.

I do not say that to spoil the moment. These kids owe the country nothing. They earned every option they have.

But it should tell us something. We are excellent at finding this talent. We are excellent at training it. We are still not great at giving it somewhere worth staying.

Congratulations Kanishk, Riddhesh, Rishit, Shresth and Svarit. This is one of the best things an Indian did this year and most of the country will never hear about it.

Demolish all encroachments.
100% agree.

Arrest the cops, netas and babus who let these illegal settlements flourish.
Set precedence.

Else, it's just communal cleansing.

The perinnial Indian cunningness back in action.

Gas cylinders being marked up exorbitantly by the same bastards who feign patriotism and desh bhakti.

We Indians care only about looting at the first opportunity .

Its the same across class, caste, creed, community.

So much fun gazing at them and concocting vivd stories of giants marching across the lands .....

[Historic Vids @historyinmemes]

In 2010, Iceland introduced the concept of electrical support structures designed to resemble towering, walking iron giants.

@Paperclip_In I find it fascinating he used Mridangam, Kanjira, Morsing (carnatic music) for the sound track instead of traditional Bengali instruments. Was this deliberate ? South Induan society being so steeped in the caste system ?

[dilipram @_Dtalks]

@GlobalIJournal Incredible that none of the scenarios have an India angle. While the political dispensation in India believes it as a power to be reckoned with, its actually not even a minor player. Our strategic visioning is at best reactive and out of the loop of what ls going on. Fact!

Of course , mandatory, " We Indians can never ever reach this level of accountability ".

Yahan , on time is seen as weakness. Making people wait is a power move....

They don't pay taxes. Do gunda gardi, politics & zero civic sense.

Bas land becho aur Thar chalao.

Sach hai.

Tax them so that they too feel the need to ask for accountability.

VARUN'S GRIEF CAUGHT ON CAMERA IS THE CRY OF INJUSTICE. HEARTBREAKING.

In a chilling case of road rage, a couple has been arrested in Bengaluru for allegedly chasing down and deliberately ramming their car into a bike, killing one of the riders on the spot. Manoj Kumar and Aarti, were driving through the area when their car’s side mirror was brushed by a passing bike ridden by Darshan and Varun. The bikers continued on their way after the minor touch, but in a fit of rage, Manoj reportedly pursued them for nearly two kilometres before deliberately crashing into the two-wheeler. The car borne duo returned layer to clean up the crime scene.

🚨Can you IMAGINE?

BJP's Delhi govt has built a pond filled with clean, filtered drinking water right next to the Yamuna River so that Modi ji can take a dip during Chhath Puja ahead of the Bihar assembly elections.

What a fraud!
